Personally, I prefer 4 different nurseries for currants and gooseberries. Though I am not sure if they are a good fit for you, since these are all Pacific Northwest nurseries....

I ordered from Nourse Farms my very first Ben Sarek 2 years ago. I do like the service and quality. But. They are shipping in springtime.
I would like to plant in fall.
That’s why I’m looking for another source.

Edible Landscaping? I believe they're near Richmond on hte East Coast.

I intended to plant black currants, but held off when I learned they harbor rusts...

Here is a source in NY but it says on the site that he can't ship to NJ so you would probably have to pick them up at his farm. Greg is the same person who was responsible for getting The Governor to make growing surrants in NY legal again afer 100 years.
